Pics of my ride

These pics are long overdue. Here are pics of my maxima a.k.a. "The Ghost." I bought it back in May of this year. I ended up replacing both bumpers due to damage from the previous owner (reckless *****). I went with an 07 rear. I didn't do the spoiler due to financial constraints. Just finished medical school and started my first year of residency. The tires are brand new (Goodyear Eagle GTs); just got them on Saturday. The first 2 pics are of Hurricane Gustav's damage and relief effort in Baton Rouge, LA. I ran for refuge since I live close to New Orleans. My car was parked right where that neighbor;s fence collapsed. The family friends we were staying with told me to move my car. Twenty minutes later, the fence fell; the rest of it fell 15 minutes later. Thank God for it not hitting my ride. However, some flying wood scratched of the vinyl on the driver side window. Anywhere I can by a replacement? With no further delay, here are the pics.

Thanks, guys. I'll probably wait a year or two before I get a kit. Don't want to get bored with the max too quickly.

I agree! Chernmax has his roof painted onyx black and it looks awesome but an overlay would be much more economical and reversable if for some reason you didnt like it

Those Magnaflows go perfect with the 07 bumper. I'd like to see your front bumper insert painted, but good looking ride.

MorpheusZero: That's funny. I had this style of rims on my 4th gen before I got hit by a drunk driver.

Shizzle-Shane: I got the tails from max2damax. I painted the headlights my self.

The brakes I have now are stock and so are the rotors. On my 4th gen, I had ceramic brakes pads from autozone for the fronts and rears (from Advance auto parts). I went with their brands since they both offered lifetime warranty. Performance was nice with hardly any dusting. Whenever it was time to get my pads changed, I'd bring in the old ones and get a credit. Never had to pay a dime and the stores are local. My rotors were brembo. I'm planning on doing a similar setup on this max when the time comes to change the brake pads.
